Reaction Steps

7-Methoxy-4,4-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one (1.48 g, 7.24 mmol) (Winstein, S.; Heck, R. F, J. Org. Chem., 1972, 37, 825.) was dissolved in Ethanol (20 mL) then Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (0.61 g, 8.8 mmol) and Sodium acetate (1.20 g, 14.6 mmol) were added along with Water (20 mL). The mixture was warmed to 70° C. for 6 h, cooled and partitioned between 50 mL DCM, 10 mL satd. sodium bicarbonate and 40 mL water. The pH was 6-7. The phases were separated and the aq. extracted 2×50 mL DCM. The organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. 7-Methoxy-4,4-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one oxime was isolated as a yellow solid (1.55 g, 98%) and used without purification. 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 7.42 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 7.27 (d, 1H, J=8.5 Hz), 7.23 (s, 1H), 6.91 (dd, 1H, J=2.4, 8.5 Hz), 3.81 (s, 3H), 2.85 (t, 2H, J=6.8 Hz), 1.73 (t, 2H, J=6.8 Hz), 1.27 (s, 6H).
